This young buck is enjoying a cool spot in the shade. Had to pump up the ISO for shutter speed...and still shooting at 1/20th...good & solid tripods are a good thing to have. :)

Took my lunch at...of course, my very favorite place and I had the pleasure of this little visitor. It stayed long enough to get my tripod up and fire off 2 shots then promptly bounded off.

This was on a frequently used trail.

Black Guillemot on a rock cliff with a recent catch. This photo was captured during a recent visit to Cheticamp.

Getting home I had to dig into the bird books trying to identify the different species encountered not found here in Kingston.

This Guillemot was one of them, I find their red feet to be quite comical!

Had a great visit recently to Cheticamp on the Cape Breton island in Nova Scotia....simply stunning scenery!

Beach in petite Etang, just north of Cheticamp, on the Cape Breton Island.
